Pastiche Quotes

• A typical 'Larry King Live' is a pastiche whose absurdism defies parody. Wearing his trademark suspenders and purple shirts, he looks as if he's strapped to the chair with vertical seat belts, unable to eject.

• Toda la literatura, culta o no, desde la Eneida en adelante, es fan fiction....A través de la parodia y el pastiche, la alusión y el homenaje, volviendo a contar y a imaginar las historias que se contaron antes que nosotros y que hemos crecido amando -amateurs-, buscamos los lugares vacíos en el mapa que nuestros escritores favoritos, en su grandeza y negligencia, han dejado para nosotros, con la esperanza de transmitir a nuestros propios lectores -si tenemos la suerte de encontrar alguno- algo del placer que nosotros mismos hemos sentido en las cosas que amamos: entrar en el juego. Todas las novelas son secuelas; la influencia es la felicidad.

• I really enjoy the pastiche storytelling of watching separate stories slowly collide with one another. The audience gets to participate in trying to guess and decipher how one story will connect with another.

• Se ha convertido en un tópico anunciar que "vivimos en una cultura de la remezcla"... Lo que en la posmodernidad se denominaba cita, apropiación y pastiche ya no necesita ningún nombre especial. Se trata simplemente de la lógica básica de la producción cultural.

• Making a film is like making a mixtape. You're collecting all this stuff and putting your favorite stuff into it: you have actors that you like, characters that you're interested in, moments you want to explore, themes you want to deal with, music that you want to put in. It's a pastiche of all these things that deal with how you see the world. You're just trying to make a love letter, a gift.

• As for the various kinds of montage photography, they are in reality not photography at all but a kind of painting in which photography is used - as pastiches of textiles are used in crazy-quilts - to form a mosaic. Whatever value the montage may have derives from painting rather than the camera.

• I'm an English songwriter/composer, working in Mandarin and trying to find something about Chinese culture that I really relate to and respect and feel some genuine emotions for - and it's quite hard, the pentatonic scale, and that, in a way, is why I think it works. Because I'm forced to limit myself to quite strict rules about what I did. Maybe that's how I avoided pastiche.

• ¿Existen bestias míticas que no sean simples pastiches de la naturaleza? Centauros, minotauros, unicornios, grifos, quimeras, esfinges, mantícoras y similares no hablan bien de la imaginación humana. Ninguno es tan novedoso como un canguro o una estrella de mar.

• Los primeros 50 años del cine fueron absolutamente geniales. Las mentes originales estaban trabajando para establecer las formas de contar una historia. Y lo que ocurre ahora es una copia, un pastiche de lo que hicieron los grandes.

• I guess I have no motivation to make an abstract painting, even if they sometimes read as abstract. I think, with abstraction, it's easy to fall into a sort of pastiche.

• As a piece of writing, The Elementary Particles feels like a bad, self-conscious pastiche of Camus, Foucault and Bret Easton Ellis. And as a philosophical tract, it evinces a fiercely nihilistic, anti-humanistic vision built upon gross generalizations and ridiculously phony logic. It is a deeply repugnant read.
